欧盟评估转基因荧光假单胞菌菌株PIC生产的磷酸肌醇磷脂酶C的安全性

 

　　据了解，这种食品酶是由转基因荧光假单胞菌菌株PIC生产的，旨在用于通过脱胶生产精制食用脂肪和油。

 

　　经过评估，专家小组认为，在预期的使用条件下，不能排除饮食暴露引起过敏反应的风险，但这种可能性被认为很低。根据所提供的数据，评估小组得出结论，这种食品酶在预期使用条件下不会引起安全问题。部分原文报道如下：

 

　　The food enzyme phosphoinositide phospholipase C (1-phosphatidyl-1D-myo-inositol-4,5-bisphosphate inositoltrisphosphohydrolase EC 3.1.4.11.) is produced with the genetically modified Pseudomonas fluorescens strain PIC by DSM Food specialties B.V. The genetic modifications do not give rise to safety concerns. The food enzyme is free from viable cells of the production organism and its DNA. It is intended to be used in the processing of fats and oils for the production of refined edible fats and oils by degumming. Since residual amounts of the total organic solids are removed by the washing and purification steps applied during degumming, dietary exposure estimation and toxicity testing were considered unnecessary. A search for the similarity of the amino acid sequence of the food enzyme to known allergens was made and no matches were found. The Panel considered that the risk of allergic reactions by dietary exposure cannot be excluded, but the likelihood for this to occur is low. based on the data provided, the Panel concluded that this food enzyme does not give rise to safety concerns under the intended conditions of use.
